I didn't even get involved with anything they post when I was a member so I posted the compromise message on there and left them to it.

They are in a Swindon Town fans group that you have to join. I wouldn't if you want to keep your blood pressure down.
Agreed. I joined for a month, but it was so depressing I unfollowed. Makes the TEF look like Mastermind.

We actually have a greeting at least. They just wait for you to say something and BOOM. They have the power to make you check what you said again. I think my original thing was the Port Vale away display (the first thing I did), and they reacted like I just rubbed the rims of all their glasses on a different kind of unclean rim.

All of this stuff about politicising football..... This isn't a political issue*, it's a humanitarian one. Football fans are not really known for their empathy towards other people which is why I think that these banners should be allowed into grounds to show that not all football fans are racist inbreds. I'm disappointed by Barnsley and by the CG for not letting the banner into the grounds, however I understand that they're trying to avoid any unnecessary confrontations.
True respect to Jay.

Yeah, but by 2050 we will be a muslim majority state.
I read it on Facebook, it had pictures and everything.

I'm assuming so, but maybe incorrectly. I have an Iraqi colleague who's an apostate, so maybe not.....

Is this the fb group called Swindon Town Fans or a different one? Always something that was going to split opinion, but a shame there's an element who have to take it too far and get abusive to Jay.

Why involve our football club in controversial issues and yes it is?! If you want to indulge yourself then fine! You don't need OUR football club to enhance your aims. A bit naive if I'm honest.

So is someone thinks the banner shouldn't be allowed, they are racist?!

He/she does come across as a "bit of a tit" imo.

In minds of the "Leftist / Marxist / Politically Correct Brigade" the answer is sadly yes ?
